Zimbabwe once again showed that Zimbabwe have much better players than Bangladesh.  Bangladesh is playing so bad than before which is beyond words.  I don't understand why they are losing so many times to Zimbabwe.  It seems that Bangladeshi players lack a lot of experience and Bangladesh has a lot to learn from Zimbabwe.
Zimbabwe had world class players.. but that was two decades back. Back then they had Andy Flower, Tatenda Taibu, Andy Blignaut, Heath Streak, Dougie Marillier, Alistair Campbell, Neil Johnson and Murray Goodwin. But then Robert Mugabe and his government started harassing the white residents and most of them moved to countries such as Australia and England. After that Zimbabwe has been on continuous decline. Once in a while some exceptional players such as Blessing Mahwire or Brendan Taylor manages to win a few matches for them.. but it only slows down the ongoing decline.
@Sithara007 I remember the golden days of Zimbabwean cricket, and if I’m correct these player’s had defeated some big teams too. However for me both Bangladesh and Zimbabwe are in a constant state of decline, and maybe it’s time for some other countries replace them, but do you’ll feel that ICC will take the bold step of replacing them?.

The Zimbabwe team was destroyed by the corruption of their board. At the same time there was political interference in the internal affairs of the board. As a result, Zimbabwe slowly went into decline. The situation of Bangladesh is the same. We have heard the news of BCB's corruption several times. Also, the fixing of their domestic league is an open secret. Because of these reasons, the condition of the Bangladesh cricket team is now so deplorable.
The situation of Bangladesh team is getting very bad.  As days go by, they are losing their focus on the ball game.  It's all for the president, he's used to corruption everywhere.  If the president of the Bangladesh team is changed, everything will be fine.  But it needs a lot of time.  Bangladesh team will become stronger if the president is changed.
